Nope!!


But the artist of the work seems to be Shiro-san! The artist of Act-Age!! One of my favourite manga!! too bad the author was a pedophile...

I'll give it a try!!

Saw youtube short about it, looks pretty cool. Definitely giving it a try. Wtf is that about the author? @K.Angel

@Leffty Act-Age was a two person work, Shiro-san was the artist and Tatsuya was the author, Act-Age was a really big work, it was actually supposed to get an anime adaptation in 2021 and it was already in production!! But in August 2020, Tatsuya was caught trying to molest two middle schoolgirls and was later convicted in the court but ,unfortunately, he wasn't put to jail but he was suspended for 3 years! He ruined Shiro-san's too because of her previous connection with Tatsuya, she wasn't able to get any work!! Tatsuya really didn't act his age.

The manga got cancelled too, the work is incomplete.

Act-Age has so many potential. I really, really wanted to see how far the MC can go with her emotional baggage and her method acting. Dangit, Why you gotta diddle kids?!

Broooo... wtf...
This is just fucking sad.

I mean, shouldn't people support the manga then? It's not like she ever did anything, not like she knew?
I think it's worth supporting artist who went through that shit.

Can't blame her wanting to torch Act-Age and cancel anything related to it though.

@Leffty Saddest part was that she wasn't the one who cancelled the manga, the publishers did and they also terminated her, if I remember correctly. Imagine spending your entire time putting in a work just for it to get terminated and cancelled because of someone else's fault!!

I mean, honestly speaking, there is no way she would want to be known for her work after all that. (mostly because how disgusting society can be).
But the termination part of this whole ordeal was complete and utter bullshit.

Literally why would you ever want to get rid of such a talented artist. And especially not hire them? Just because of bad publicity?
Everything I read about her is mostly praises about how godly her art is.
